The 47-year-old actress - who plays Barbara Minerva and her alter ego Cheetah in the highly anticipated sequel - admitted she was nervous because of the success of the first blockbuster, which starred Gal Gadot in the title role alongside Chris Pine (Steve Trevor) and was directed by Patty Jenkins.
Speaking to Gadot for Harper’s Bazaar UK online, she said: I was scared. Whenever you go into something that’s already established, and you and Patty are so close… Chris obviously was in the first one, Pedro [Pascal] and I felt like the new ones. That lasted for a day.”
The Mr Bean-like Man Vs Bee
Rowan Atkinson is to make a series of physical comedy shorts for Netflix entitled Man Vs Bee.
The ten-minute shorts will feature a character who battles an annoying bee, and is likely to be in the vein of the hugely successful Mr Bean series.
Calling the ten new episodes ‘a riotous comedy’, the Netflix blurb says: ‘A man finds himself at war with a bee while house-sitting a luxurious mansion. Who will win, and what irreparable damage will be done in the process?’
Atkinson is writing the series with Will Davies, who has previously worked on Atkinson’s Johnny English film franchise as well as writing How To Train Your Dragon and Stop! Or My Mum will shoot.
